| #1 Brilliantly done Mr. Hanson. I would suggest adding the following to our witnessing: A statist, progressive assault on American Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelts New Deal of the 1930's has been unmasked as classic socialist tyranny through the blunderings of a mysterious community organizer with a Muslim name. "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of it victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satisfied; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with approval of their own conscience." C.S. Lewis, God in the Dark: Essays on Theology and Ethics, ed. Walter Hooper (Grand Rapids, Mich.: Eerdmans, 1994, 292. |
